Yes.  He needed to be w/o skilled service - regardless of how paid or by whom - for 60 days.  ----- Original Message ----- From: Goche, Ann To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Cc: Szczublewski, Kay Sent: Thursday, December 04, 2003 2:30 PM Subject: re: qualifying for MCA Facts:   Mr. S was admitted to SNF on 2/22/03 on MCA.  Last covered MCA was 3/3/03. Out to the hospital (OTH) on 11/10/03 with Fx hip repair. Returned from hospital on 11/16/03 and needed PT 5x week. Prior to going OTH, he received Part B 5x week OT...9/5/03 to 9/15/03   Question:           Does the Part B skilled services prevent the beginning of a New Part A benefit period?           Thanks, Ann
